HAPPY NEW YEAR

Happy New Year Everyone!! I can't believe we are now into 2020. My New Years resolution was to blog more often. Well I think I have failed already, as it is now the 21st of January and this is my first for the year. Let's hope I can stay true to my resolution from now on.

Can you believe this is the best time of the year for Stampin’ Up! customers. I have  my Sale a Bration and Occasions Catalogue by my bed and it has become my bedtime reading.

If you are new to Sale a Bration, then let me explain why this is such a great time of year. There are 3 options during Sale a Bration.

The Year-End Closeout Is Almost Over!

We’re sad to say it, but the Year-End Closeout will soon be at an end. I'd just like to remind you to take another look at the selection of retiring and surplus items that are still available, and place your orders by 2 January. You wouldn’t want to head into the new year with any regrets, after all!

Head on over to my Online shop and use the hostess code AKHGHX9E to receive a thank you gift from me

What is your January Plan?

The new year symbolises a new beginning for many of us. We've gone through some bad times and some good times. Now it is a New Year and we should all be refreshed and ready for the new challenges that a new year brings.

Here’s my plan:

1. Make sure I spend more time with my husband, taking short trips often.
2. Catch up with my friends over a coffee instead of a quick text or email. Why has technology taken over so much of our personal lives????
3. Enjoy my garden and share the wonderful organic produce with friends.
4. Drag out my birthday calendar and update it. I want to commit to sending more cards this year.
5. Continue having fun in my Craft Studio.
6. Start a new Hostess club

I would love to hear what everyone else is planning.

If you are planning more crafting, then come and enjoy a class in my studio or book a workshop and I'll come to you.

With a new seasonal catalogue and Sale-A-Bration, it’s also the best time of year to tap into the built-in offers Stampin' Up! are promoting.

CCMC336 - Colour Challenge

Hello everyone and Happy New Year! I have decided to hop out of my comfort zone and take part in a Challenge.

Create with Connie and Mary is back with some fabulous challenges for the New Year!  Today they are starting the new year off with this beautiful colour challenge! Using Real Red, Calypso Coral and Basic Black.

My creation has used 3 different embossing folders on the card strips and then I lay these behind the circles, punched out a butterfly and attached the Real red bow.

I hope you find some time to create a card for this challenge!  Head on over to Create with Connie and Mary and give it a try!  I'd love to see what you do!

Stampin' Up! is so generous

Hi folks this is just a quick post to show another reason why I love Stampin' Up!

When I joined as a demonstrator I looked into the "green" aspect of the company and was very happy with what I found. I was also very thrilled to find they were a generous and caring company. Take a look a this very short  video and see why I am so happy to be a part of Stampin' Up!

View this short video of NBC speaking to Sara Douglas the daughter of the founder of Stampin' Up!  

They are giving over $2,000,00, in stamps and paper crafting supplies to the Annual Toy Drive. How wonderful.

Merry Christmas and drive safely.
